We are builders of technology businesses currently at top tier internet companies in APAC. We believe startups in Southeast Asia deserve a better breed of angels - genuinely wanting to go beyond capital. We like to work closely with promising founders, bringing to bear our own experiences building and scaling technology companies and products in Southeast Asia. We have noticed a ton of these people are sitting in our network of technology leaders wanting to invest in high-quality startup founders, wanting to engage and help, but without having a programmatic avenue to do this on a regular basis.
